Personal care that protects pride
Needing help with a shower should not cost anyone their dignity. Our certified aides handle the most personal moments of care with skill, patience and genuine warmth, so your loved one stays clean, comfortable, fed and confident in their own home.
What personal care includes
- Bathing, showering and grooming, with techniques that preserve modesty
- Dressing and personal hygiene, including oral, skin, hair and nail care
- Toileting and incontinence care, handled matter-of-factly and kindly
- Safe transfers and mobility, bed to chair, chair to walker, with fall-prevention training
- Meal planning and preparation, honoring diets, cultures and lifelong favorites
- Medication reminders tied to an RN-reviewed medication list
- Light housekeeping and laundry that keeps the home safe and pleasant
The people we send
Every aide is a W-2 employee who passed a national and Nevada fingerprint background check, TB test, drug screening and reference checks, then completed our 40-hour training academy before their first shift. An RN writes the care plan, supervises in the home and re-evaluates at least every 60 days.
And because relationships are the real service, we match for personality as carefully as for skills, then keep the same aide on your schedule. 92 percent of our caregivers have been with us three years or longer, which means the person your mother trusts will still be there next year.

Questions families ask about personal care
What is the difference between a home health aide and a caregiver?
A certified home health aide (CNA or trained HHA) provides hands-on personal care: bathing, dressing, toileting, transfers and mobility assistance. A companion caregiver helps with everything around the person: meals, errands, housekeeping and company. Our aides are trained for both, and an RN decides the right level during the free assessment.
How do you protect my parent's dignity during personal care?
Dignity is a skill we train for, not a slogan. Aides learn specific techniques: draping during bathing so the client is never fully exposed, offering choices instead of commands, working at the client's pace, and protecting privacy even when family is in the house. Most clients tell us the awkwardness disappears within the first week.
Can the aide also cook and clean?
Yes. Light housekeeping, laundry, linens, dishes and meal preparation are part of the role, focused on the client's spaces and needs. Aides keep the home safe and livable; they are not a maid service for the whole household, and we are upfront about that line.
Is personal care covered by insurance?
Medicare covers home health aide visits when they accompany a skilled need such as nursing or therapy. Nevada Medicaid covers personal care services for eligible members. VA programs and long-term care insurance often pay as well. Our advisors verify every option free before you spend a dollar of your own.
